I recieved the aardvark 24/96 from ebay as a christmas gift a week
and a half ago...but before i got it, i was in the middle of recording
my band, and i recorded drums and bass so far with my Sound Blaster
Audigy 2 ZS soundcard i have in my computer and my 6 channel
Fender SR6325 PA head hooked to it.

By my suprise it came out very clear and full..Not the greatest but
not the worst, but then again i am recording in a basement and
have no recording experience what so ever, i usually understand
things as i go, and usually don't ask for help But now all i have left
to record is vocals and guitar/distortion. We have more of
a glassjaw/deftones distortion which seems to be a real b*tch to record.

When i recieved the aardvark it came with a manual....But the
manual doesn't tell you much, as how to use it? what you need other
than what you recieve to hook it up and record? so i am oblivious on
how i can use this nifty little box. They give you a big sound card plug
to hook to the aardvark sound card...but i don't know if that even lets
you record it to the computer... i think i still need to run RCA Jacks
from it....

So if anyone could maybe give me a step by step instruction as to
how i can use it...It would be much appreciated...Thanks

There is an Aardvark users group over at Yahoo that was formed to keep there line of products alive (after aardvark went out). the link is here:

I believe you can get drivers and such that you would need for the 24/96.

I used to own a 24/96, and my only problem I had was that I had to get a new motherboard for it. It doesn't like VIA or SIS chipsets at all!!!!, and when there site was up and running, it had a compatibility page for that. I do know that it seemed to work well with Nforce chipsets, that's what I had gotten, and it worked well for that.
 
I have a pair of Q10 24/96 and get exquisite sound from them with my SP-C4 and AT4047 mics.

Platform is XP/SP1, 7.13 Q10 drivers, 512mb, G450 video, ABit NF7-S board, XP-2000 processor. All XP tweaks in place, dedicated as DAW.

I found SP2 for WinXP was an absolute show stopper with 7.13 drivers. YMMV. I run SP1 just fine. No crashing, no memory leaks, no resetting B.S. after a few hours. It runs day in, day out, no worries.
